I have mixed feelings about Jaedong joining Khan. Khan is special to me because they've always managed to be the best (or near the best) without a strong zerg lineup (SKT1 syndrome). To me, any team that gets Jaedong becomes ridiculously powerful. I like the balance of proleague the way it is and I hope that Jaedong stays with OZ.

Anyone knows the contracts of the top players like Bisu Flash Jaedong Effort Fantasy Stork ?

How much money they make per year? If calm is 150mil won then i guess all above are 200++
Stork and KHAN fan till 2012 ...

For a conversion 100 million won is 60.000 euro / 85000 dollar which is 5.000 euro a month.

A person with a master degree earns around 1500 euro a month netto when he starts working. So even if the 5.000 drops to 3500 euro netto, the progamer still makes more then dubble the amount of money.

If jaedong goes to khan or skt, they'll be unstoppable with their only weakness covered. Well khan's terran players needs to shape up a bit.

Jaedong will probably go to a team without a good zerg.

CJ is not an option with effort, kwanro, and savior.
KT is also not an option with luxury, firefist, and hoejja.
Hite has type-b, yarnc, and hogil.
Woongjin has ggplay and zero.
Wemade has shine, roro, keke.
STX has calm, july, hero.
SKT has thezerg, hyuk.
MBC has hyun, saint.
Khan has great.

These are players that appear on proleague often. The worst zerg line up is probably

1.Khan
2.MBC
3.SKT

Khan and SKT already has pretty big contract so jaedong will probably go to MBC or back to oz.

Jaedong can't go to SKT because the universe would implode from awesomeness overdose as a result of hours of Jaedong/Fantasy practice matches.

She's definitely successful as a coach, I'm just not sure she's strict enough. You can see how strict she was with Stork's practice for WCG in his interview.... He was watching One Piece ffs XD


Edit: as to your edit, I don't think any team in the right mind would think "we have decent zergs, it won't matter much if we don't get Jaedong"

Oh, and stork just happened to win all his games.


I don't see what the big deal is. It's not like it's a major tournament and Stork has like nobody to practice with now anyways.

Also the whole reason that JD decided to go FA is because he doesn't want to be overworked. The bottom 4 teams don't seem to be valid choices.

Yea, but they also has to think about the cost effectiveness. But still, its offseason, no big tournys, only wcg qualifiers and hes still winning, who cares if he watches a bit of one piece. He probably was working his ass off during the pl season.

Don't know about khan and skt, jd was overworked partly because he had to play ace every single time. On khan, stork and jangbi can relieve the workload and on skt, bisu and fantasy. STX also has good ace.

If Jaedong gets traded to SKT1, does that mean he won't participate in GOM anymore?

I wasn't arguing that Khan players suck. I was arguing that January isn't very strict with practice.

Not in Season 3, at least. Which he's out of already. SKT1 did participate in season 2 (and also season 1 I think), so you can't count them out of season 4 just yet.
